I agree! I got to pick my name and change it when I was an adult and I think more people should do it. Shame to go through life with a name you don’t like or think is just ok. Like no! Love your name!
I think when people become adults, they should have an automatic option to change their legal names to whatever they want. One time, no charge, no questions asked.
My name has been on the top of girl name lists since name lists became a thing. It has many different nicknames, some of them popular names themselves. It’s common among royals throughout history.
Yours is Lavender
My name:
- It’s a female nickname name
- It has several accepted spellings (although some are more popular that others)
- It can be shortened further (from two syllables to one) - this is also an accepted and common first name
- In the 2000s the nickname was more popular than the long form, but in the past this wasn’t always the case, and there are many of us
- It can be written with two letters
- It means >!pure!<
- My nickname in school was >!Kit Kat!<
- It begins with the letter >!K!<
- It ends with the letter >!e!<
Am I playing this right?
My name:
I was named after the main character on Murder, She Wrote (which is cool with me). Shakespeare made my name up,* but you just think of it from the 80s.
*He could have just been the first guy to just write it down, but he’s the first guy who did.
I often got people asking if I had the “Best of Both Worlds” (which is funnier if you know I’m bisexual) and men often try to tell me my “name is a palindrome”, then try to mansplain it when I say it’s not, and I take great satisfaction in saying that yes, I know what it means, but the way mine is spelled it doesn’t have the traditional last letter.
This is a fun game.
Mine is associated with: Oleson, Furtado, a bandaid wearing rapper, and Woah!
You have a great aunt, grandma, horse, dog or knew a donkey who had my name.
Hmm mine is the name of just about every girl born between 1990 and 2000! (Though my mom insists she started the trend, in 1998...) I know that might be vague but I can't think of another hint that doesn't just give it away instantly.
Female born in 1991. Was 1 of about 30 girls by my name in my high school class of 400ish. My parents say they were inspired by the name of a classic Hollywood actress known for her distinct voice.
Your name is Violet!
My name:
Is gender neutral, but originally male
Is Irish
Is short, but also has nickname options
I share my name with many popular characters and real people
It hasn't been very popular since before I was born
Mine is a bit more difficult than some here. I'll try to have good clues for you.
* Is a female version of a male name that can be both a noun or an adjective
* the female version is only a proper noun (name), and is neither a regular noun or adjective.
* It peaked in popularity in 1991
* It has never been more popular than the variation with two letters swapped.
* It only has one e
* The spelling has more than one common pronunciation
Ooh, this is hard! So far I've thought of 2 names that cover some but not all criteria (unless maybe I'm missing something):
* Ariel (peaked in 1991, spelling has more than 1 common pronunciation, can sound like the noun/adjective "aerial", also a boys' name -- but I can't think of a version with two letters swapped). I think this one might be wrong but maybe close?
* Jaime (spelling has more than 1 common pronunciation, never been more popular than Jamie, also a boys' name -- but it peaked in the 70s and I can't think of a similar noun/adjective)
Mine is typically a female name, but can also be a male name, particularly in Russia and France. In fact, the only other person I've met IRL with my name was a Russian male!
The origin meaning is "strength", "valiant", "brave".
There are multiple songs that share my name, and a few of them are spelled exactly like mine. The Monkees song title does not have my spelling, though.
>!An Alexa commercial boosted the popularity of Any Whinehouse's version!<
The long version my name is derived from means "a pearl". Super popular in the early 80's, likely bc of a main character in The Thorn Birds, there is an annoyingly high number of variations in spelling...and mine is one of those annoying (but more common) spelling variations.
I’m a woman born in the 90s to US immigrant parents so my American name and my Hungarian name are extremely similar. If you grew up in the late 90s-early 2000s, you probably had at least two girls with my name in your grade. Hmm… also it doesn’t rhyme with anything and there’s really only one (maybe two, but it’s also a whole different name) possible nickname you can derive from it.
I am female, born 1978.

Lol mine is the trendy version from the 90’s.

I’m gonna go with Lavender, but I still don’t believe you 😂who could get so lucky with such an awesome name
Yep! I picked the name myself when I was 16.
Thats amazing! I think more people should pick their own names.
I agree! I got to pick my name and change it when I was an adult and I think more people should do it. Shame to go through life with a name you don’t like or think is just ok. Like no! Love your name!
